The one who came was Auntie Zhu from Cining Palace.
Seeing the sword with its cold gleam stopped at her own forehead, she was so frightened that her heart and guts were trembling.
Fortunately, having seen much of the world, she managed to maintain her standing posture without losing composure and chuckled awkwardly, "Miss Wuya, we are here under the orders of the Empress Dowager..."
The Empress Dowager?
Wuya had seen her several times at palace banquets.
An old lady who looked very aged.
It was said that she was supposed to have died several times but didn't, a person blessed with great fortune and longevity.
She is now seen as a lucky charm of Yue Country.
These past few days, while learning to recognize characters in Liu Mianmian's chambers, Liu Mianmian made it a point to caution her.
The one person you must not offend in the palace is the Empress Dowager.
